2009 Lexus IS F
The 2009 Lexus IS-F Luxury Sport Sedan
With an appetite for tearing up the pavement and turning heads with its brazenly sporty and sleek design, the 2009 Lexus IS-F is considered the foracious cousin of the Lexus IS line.
A powerful 5.0-liter V8 generates 416 horsepower and 371 pound-feet of torque when paired with the standard eight-speed automatic transmission with paddle-shift manual mode. You'll barely feel the pavement below you as the IS-F rockets from 0-60 MPH in a mere 4.8 seconds!
But you'll never truly feel out of control thanks to the numerous safety features that Lexus employs in order to ensure that you and your passengers always remain safe and secure. These features include antilock brakes with brake assist, stability control, traction control, front-seat side and knee airbags and full-length side curtain airbags. A pre-collision system (PCS) that comes packaged with adaptive cruise control is another safety option, which uses a radar sensor to detect obstacles in front of the car. If the computer determines that a collision is inevitable, it pre-emptively stiffens the suspension, provides pretension in the front seatbelts and initializes brake assist so increased braking can be applied the instant the brake pedal is pressed.
In typical Lexus tradition, the designers of the IS-F did not spare when it comes to style, comfort, and entertainment. Inside the plush interior cabin, you'll enjoy excellent sound insulation, sleek aluminum and leather accents, intelligently placed controls, and a convenient trunk pass-through for those extra-bulky items that don't quite fit right in the trunk. Also, the IS-F comes with a laundry list of standard and optional interior features.
Inside and out, it's easy to see why the 2009 Lexus IS-F turns heads wherever it goes thanks to its impressive style and performance.
